I have a garage door that has a broken spring. Should I change both springs or is it OK to just replace the broken one.

-Expensive Springs in Irvine

Dear Expensive:

Springs are cheap compared to lawsuits. Always replace both sets of springs. The one spring snapped because it was beyond its life expectancy. The other springs on that door are also close to failure. The garage door may also not work properly with worn springs on one side and new ones on the other. A well-balanced door will be safer, easer to open and will better tolerate the elements such as rain and wind. Always throw away used springs to stop the temptation of reusing them.
